Bids on five more vacant schools were opened Friday, with a sixth school taken out of the latest round of requests for proposals on Wednesday by the City Council Committee on Real Estate.

The city has been working on selling off 16 vacant school properties, with the first building, the Brayton Avenue Elementary School, going to developer Jerry Donovan for $1,000 in 2011.

The five properties are the Dubuque School on Oak Grove Avenue; the Connell School on Plymouth Avenue; the Davol School on Flint Street; the Fowler School on Sprague Street; and the Wixon School on Hamlet Street.

The Healy School on Hicks Street was removed from the roster of schools for sale after the real estate committee voted to subdivide the property in order to retain a toddler park that is located at the school.

The Healy School will be the final school to be sold.

Timothy McCoy, the city’s purchasing agent, said he opened eight separate bids at 11:01 a.m.

Two bids were offered for the Dubuque School. Randy Botelho offered $20,000 and plans to demolish the school and build 11 single-family homes. His bid package indicates he will invest $1.6 million in the project, which will take three to five years to complete.

John J. Camara offered $18,000, with plans to utilize the existing building to develop 10 to 12 two-bedroom units.

At the Connell School, the Sherwood Building Company in conjunction with the Fall River Preservation Society offered the minimum bid of $5,000 to develop the “Connell School Artist Studio” for artists’ residences and studios. It was the lone bid for the property.

The Davol School also received one bid from the Flint Neighborhood Society to redevelop the school into a youth center. The bid was $5,121.

The Fowler School received a total of three bids. Dream Homes offered $6,100 with plans to tear down the structure and build six single-family homes.

The Sherwood Building Company offered the second bid for $35,000 to redevelop the school into what it called “working-class condominiums.” The proposal didn’t indicate how many units it would build, but claimed it would create 10 jobs and take 18 months to complete.

St. Joseph’s Early Childhood Academy offered a $5,000 bid to develop the school into a facility similar to the one it owns in New Bedford.

At the Wixon School, Craig Maddalena’s company, Tag Fall River LLC, placed a bid of $15,000 and proposed to invest $3.5 to $4.5 million to convert the structure into one- and two-bedroom units, indicating in his bid that the project will take two years to complete.

McCoy said that, as of Friday, it appeared all the bids were properly submitted according to the terms of the RFP. He said each bid would be reviewed before being sent to the real estate committee.
